Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis (UC) have seen sweeping changes and novel therapeutic approaches. In this Department of Medicine Grand Rounds, we will discuss different therapeutic approaches to these inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) with a specific focus on the innovative uses of JAK inhibitors in UC and Crohn’s. Our speakers’ insights will take us from the bench to the bedside, including a focus on the impact of diet in the development and management of IBD.
